The Library supports the research needs of online courses.
- Online students have access to digital books and articles through the OneSearch database
on the Library’s homepage.
- Ebooks and Streaming Videos may be searched separately, which may be particularly helpful for students unable
to visit the Library.
- UVU students may check out books at all other Utah higher education libraries with
an official UVU student ID card.
- A limited number of laptops are available for checkout by current students. To check out a laptop, you must provide your UVU ID and be an undergraduate or graduate
student currently taking classes. Only the student signing a check out agreement is
allowed to pick up one laptop or tablet. Devices are subject to availability. Laptop Form
- Questions about using the library? Call or chat with a librarian at the Reference Desk.
Article Delivery
If you need articles from the Library, we can e-mail copies to you. To request an
article:
- Search OneSearch for articles on your topic.
- Print or email full text articles available from OneSearch.
- If the full text isn't available, find if the article is available from another online
or print source by searching for the magazine or journal in Journals by Title. (Type in the journal or magazine title, not the article's title, to locate full
text.)
- If the article is available in print at the UVU Library please request via Interlibrary
Loan.
- If you cannot find copies of the articles you need, you can request them via Interlibrary Loan.
Interlibrary Loan
Books, articles, and other materials that aren't available from the Library can be
ordered through Interlibrary Loan. Articles take a few days, and will arrive via e-mail. Books take a week to 10 days,
and will arrive by mail.
Instructor Assistance
Faculty who are teaching or developing online courses can receive help integrating
library resources into classes by contacting the Scholarly Services Librarian.
